EDITORS COMMENTS
Junior book-lovers from near and far gathered at the Pennine Hilton National Hotel for a day of literary excitement at the third Examiner Book Binge. The event was a feast for the imagination, with appearances by renowned authors and illustrators such as Jim Eldridge, Brough Girling, Tony Ross, and Colin Hawkins. These talented individuals generously shared their trade secrets with an eager audience of nearly 200 youngsters. Adding to the festive atmosphere was Wilf Lunn from Kirkburton, who delighted everyone with his explosive sausage and chips. To make things even more magical, all attendees were encouraged to come dressed in fancy costumes following the Out of this World theme. The menu for this extraordinary gathering included classic favorites like fish fingers, chips (thankfully not exploding ones), baked beans, jelly, and ice-cream. The teatime bill of fare ensured that appetites were satisfied while imaginations soared. Paul Clark from the Examiner led proceedings alongside Miss Examiner herself, Maureen Wigton. This incredible Book Binge was made possible through collaboration between Huddersfield Arts Council and Lindley's Children's Book Shop. Amongst the captivated crowd was Katherine Lewin all the way from Perth, Australia. At just seven years old, she traveled across continents to visit her grandma in Elland and made sure to include a stop at this remarkable event in her holiday schedule. The joyous spirit of celebration can be seen radiating from Leon Dowd (seven) and Sarah Norman (nine) as they fully embrace the party atmosphere.
